Nitrogen oxides (NOx) Sodium oxides |
| Protective Equipment | Use personal protective equipment. |
| Advice for firefighters | Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary |
| Small Spillage | Use appropriate tools to put the spilt solid in a convenient waste disposal container. |
| Personal Protection | Use personal protective equipment. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid dust formation. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak |
| Environmental Precaution | Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Do not allow the material to contaminate groundwater system. Prevent product from entering drains. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained |
|
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning |
Keep combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc) away from spilled material. Sweep up or vacuum up spillage and collect in a suitable container for disposal. Avoid dust formation. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. |
